She's mental but gentle, on the slow slide to cat lady status

Yesterday my Overstock.com chair arrived! It's actually quite nice and comfortable, especially given how inexpensive it was - and it's nice to actually have someplace halfway comfortable to sit now and do my reading. XD

Anyway, I'm looking forward to going to the Dougie Maclean concert tonight. As for the rest of the weekend, all I really have to do work-wise is a journal questionnaire for Intro to Grad Studies and write an abstract for my Chaucer paper, which is nice. I'm hoping to play some more DDS2 over the weekend, as well as going to see the new Pride and Prejudice at some point (assuming it's playing somewhere closer than Coralville).

Also, I picked up the new volume of the Suiko3 manga, and it is EVIL. See, it has made me totally want to hunt for Ace/Sasarai slash, which is just WRONG but feels so right in the context of this volume. XD

Let's Positive Linking, Extra-Fat Edition!
- Best Turkey Day e-card EVAR.
- PA parents challenge school teaching of Intelligent Design. What I love is that even the VATICAN issued a statement against ignoring scientific reason. (Both from [livejournal.com profile] ryuusama.)
- Oh God. You'd think they'd have learned their lesson with Bible Adventures.
- Apparently certain celibacy ed advocates want to block the HPV vaccine in order to keep teens from having sex. To all those behind this: DIE. JUST DIE, NOW, AND PUT US ALL OUT OF OUR MISERY.
- ZOMG STUFFED PRINNY DOLLS WANT
- Excerpts of Libby's pr0ny novel. I'm not sure which is worse, the fact that he has a sex scene involving a deer or a sex scene involving a bear.
- 8-bit Flash animation of a cheesy '70s anti-abortion song. Oh, bravo, I haven't laughed this hard in years. But maybe I'm just callous that way. XD
